His trial will take place at Wolverhampton Crown Court next April in the meantime he has to abide by strict bail conditions.

These include residence at Holly Road in Huddersfield, non-contact with four prosecution witnesses, a ban on entering Walsall in the West Midlands, reporting to Castlegate Police Station daily and surrendering his passport.

The 18-year-old also has to abide by an electronically-monitored curfew between the hours of 7pm and 7am.

He was arrested after breaching this condition on the evening of September 6.

Kirklees magistrates were told that he let the house and failed to return for 15 minutes after the start of his curfew.
